Security in Berlin, CT

Nov 11, 2013

Corbin Russwin is creating locking mechanisms through an assembly line with industrial robots. The assembly of these security systems need to be dependable and act with great precision; so it is no surprise that industrial robots have been chosen. Automating an assembly line is helping to decrease production time and free up workers to perform other beneficial tasks.

Berlin, CT is locat­ed in the heart of Con­necti­cut. This small town of less than 20,000 res­i­dents is known as one of the birth­places of inter­change­able man­u­fac­tur­ing parts and the indus­tri­al rev­o­lu­tion. Man­u­fac­tur­ing is one of the largest employ­ers in this city that is split down the mid­dle between res­i­den­tial and indus­tri­al. Since it is the birth­place of indus­try, it would seem to fit that it would also be a place open to the inno­va­tion of indus­tri­al robotics.

Corbin Russ­win, a com­pa­ny that has exist­ed in Berlin, Con­necti­cut since the ear­ly 1800s, cre­ates door hard­ware like locks, key sys­tems, exit devices, etc. Robots can def­i­nite­ly lend a hand to this kind of crafts­man­ship. The assem­bly of lock­ing mech­a­nism can include many small parts and springs that need to be put togeth­er. The assem­bly can be tedious and pos­si­bly cause eye strain to the work­ers. How­ev­er, when man­u­fac­tur­ers like Corbin Russ­win employ robot­ic assem­blers to put togeth­er their key sys­tems and locks, they are employ­ing sys­tems that decrease pro­duc­tion time and free up work­ers to per­form oth­er tasks or oper­ate the robots.

There is also anoth­er aspect of door hard­ware man­u­fac­tur­ing where robots can pro­vide assis­tance. Most met­al door han­dles are known for their pol­ished sheen and what bet­ter to make sure that met­al has an even, con­sis­tent pol­ish than a robot? A robot­ic pol­ish­ing sys­tem is able to pol­ish a door han­dle, lock or any oth­er door hard­ware at the same pres­sure, despite the area it is pol­ish­ing. This means that it will not be pol­ished more in one place and then be dull in anoth­er, which improves the qual­i­ty of the fin­ished product.
